Hello loyal BTP fan, what a delight it is to write a blog post for you today. I will try and write more. You have to understand, I've been up at 5:30am and I pass out by 9:00pm tops.

The studio is in high gear. As time goes on we become more coordinated. It takes time for people to get to know and trust each other. I see staff starting to play games with each other. On Saturday there were like eight staffers (and Mike D.) down for Infinity. It's a long-term dream of mine to see staff doing spontaneous game days. That was really cool.

For my part I am laser-beam focused on Inquiries. That means setting up new projects and also making sure current projects get through. Several times a week we do a walk through to be sure everything is on track. We almost all the way through a pretty huge logjam. Victims of our own success. But turnaround is vastly improving. Some projects are making it through in just a week or two. I'm working very diligently on this.

I haven't had the time to do Batreps, sorry to say. I really want to get the studio Skaven on the table.

For the next four to six months I plan on consolidating the studio with only moderate gains. We are focusing on fundamentals, just like a good team. How good can we make it? How close-knit can the team become? Then I think we will be ready for the much greater things that lay ahead.
